Hello, Kevin!
I'm at strong risk of agreeing with you and Jay, fwiw. ;-) Perhaps every cloud has a silver lining.
how did the 'accuser' know where the 'employee' worked? I believe that the employee, who clearly does not have a devious bone in her body, revealed her employment status without realizing/expecting that it would be pounced on and used as a weapon.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
